Oil leaks. Needs to top-up power steering fluid every second day.
Is home replacement of seals/gaskets possible?
Regards.
Kallie.

Hi there,

Often this is not the case as special tooling is required.

Check if it is leaking from pump or from pressure/return lines.

As Mark said, rebuilding PS pump is not s DIY job, but hose replacement is.
